This is awkward to say, but I really want to thank you guys for the dry weeks. I finally participated in the most recent one and went through some seriously bad withdrawals, which prompted me to go to a month long rehab. While I know I'll never be able to drink whiskey normally again, I've found myself buying it at bars and just smelling it (as hard as that is. and yes I'll pass it off to a buddy). Anyway, thank you for doing that. It's made for a month sober for me for what I've realized is the first time in 20 years.

I just laughed… a bunch. And cried.. way more than Emma did. Good luck Emma. You are loved, and will be missed. Cheers to THE Magnificent Bastard. 😉

[@justinmacchiaverna4028]

Congratulations to Emma on the position! It’ll be strange not seeing her in videos, but I know Rex Daniel and Brianna can step it up to provide us the best in whiskey content. Cheers to everyone here!

[@Davidjones-ox4yk]

Anything at Balcones would be my dream job. Way to go Emma! There’s nothing better than seeing great people move on to exciting opportunities.

[@laurens7500]

It says a lot about a KZbin channel when there’s an announcement like this and I get teary eyed. Good luck to you Emma, you are doing and will continue to do great things. You’ll be missed but you’ll always be a part of the family. My sincerest congratulations to you.

[@Og_Aug]

thanks for all the content emma, it was a blessing to watch you.

[@ErikWaitWhiskyStudies]

I wish I was skilled, gifted and qualified enough to fill Emma's shoes BUT while I've studied whisky (and wine) production my God-given gifts and abilities remain elsewhere - namely analyzing whisky (and wine). All the best to Emma with whom I share a birthday..... 27 years apart. ❤

[@TheDiplomancer]

I'm so proud of Emma, but she will be missed! I hope she comes back for special episodes every now and then. Keep moving up! Cheers!

[@thegoodfooddude7395]

You know I do not claim to be a magnificent Bastard, or even a memeber of the tribe. I am just a guy who likes history and spirits and the history of spirits and am a pretty big fan of what you guys are doing out in Texas with the modern whiskey revolution you are creating. It is a beautiful thing for American made distilled spirits and Whiskey and I totally salute and support what you are doing. Keep on doing what you are doing guys. I think all of this is just amazing and wonderful.

[@henryprater703]

Emma, firstly, congratulations for this great opportunity! Secondly, for the content, for the times you were such a welcoming, beyond helpful person at crowded barrel, thank you! You will be missed!

[@KillCoWhiskeyMusings]

I'm so happy I got to see Emma again at the bastards ball! I have to try more Balcones stuff anyway, now I have an even better reason to see if I can mooch some samples. The best part is that the Texas distilleries are so close and that even if she is working someplace else, I feel Fang & Feather will always be home to her and ANYONE else who is fortunate enough to work with such amazing bastards! 🖖😎🥃

[@samgallimore4273]

I remember an episode from a while ago when you visited Balcones and Jared complimented her abilities. Sorry to see her go; hopefully you can find an equally capable and pleasant replacement as soon as possible.

[@phildickerson8842]

We are really going to miss you Emma, my niece is sad that you are leaving the CW as she just met you for the first time and was impressed with your explanation of the whiskey flight. I know you will do a great job at balcones and look forward to the release that has your first creative blend contained within. Thanks you for all you have done , for both the tribe and the distillery.

[@GreyDevil]

Man what a bummer that Emma is leaving but at the same time good for her! I'm really happy that she's able to going on to do some cool shit with Balcones, good luck and hope this won't be the last we see of her.

[@Furry_Viking]

Such a bitter sweet moment. Happy for you Emma but so sad to see you go. Glad that I've gotten to chat with you a couple times. Thanks again for nailing my name on the Wall of Magnificence with the slingshot! lol

[@fulcrumg]

I'm so happy for Emma, the whiskey tribe just had their own angel's share. At least we still have Briana and The Mooch for eye candy!

[@mrjockey87]

Sad to see Emma go but gosh darnit if Balcones isn’t an awesome place to land! My condoleances to Crowded Barrel and Congratulations to Balcones and to Emma.

[@removelimitbreak7524]

And take ya damn Laphroaig with ya!!!!😂

[@Whiskey_Assassin]

I just learned about Queen's cut on the Balcones tour last week. Super cool. Let Her name be remembered for all time! Another Has Ascended. The Trash Panda and Sparkle Master Chad; Deb, The Mother Of the Single M.O.M. and Guardian of The Still; and Emma, Queen of The Barrel Throne and now Blender of Balcones!

[@jimcoleman7537]

Congratulations, Emma, on the new position at Balcones. You're definitely deserving. Thank you for all of the awesomeness that you brought to Crowded Barrel.
